Stretch Announces New Series of CIF Resolution DVR Add-In Cards

SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - June 23, 2009) - Stretch Inc., the pioneer and leader in
software configurable processors, today announced availability of the
VRC6000C Series of PCIe DVR add-in cards. VRC6000C Series cards feature
Stretch S6000 family software configurable processors and deliver
state-of-the-art H.264 intelligent encoding capability for up to 16
channels of CIF resolution video on a single PCIe add-in card. This
provides a highly cost effective solution for applications that require
excellent video processing performance and high-channel densities.

The first card in the VRC6000C Series is the 16-channel VRC6016C. The
VRC6016C performs video pre-processing and embedded analytics at full frame
rate on every channel to optimize the H.264 Intelligent Encoder in real
time. This reduces both file sizes and storage requirements. The card can
be configured using the same rich application programmers interface (API)
found on the D1 resolution VRC6000 Series of cards.

"The VRC6000C Series uses the same API as our VRC6000 Series D1 resolution
add-in cards, allowing customers to select a card that meets their
resolution and channel-density requirements," said Bob Beachler, Stretch
vice president of marketing. "In many installations, using CIF resolution
is sufficient and more cost effective than using D1. With the addition of
CIF resolutions, Stretch now offers the most complete portfolio of DVR
add-in cards, supporting MJPEG, MPEG4, H.264 AVC, and H.264 SVC encoding
and decoding."

All cards in the VRC6000C Series can also perform D1 resolution capture and
compression. By leveraging the flexibility afforded by Stretch software
configurable processor technology, the VRC6016C can be reconfigured to
capture and compress 8 channels of D1 resolution video at full frame rate.

The VRC6016C card is available immediately. Contact Stretch sales for
pricing information.
